I was 3 or 4 years old and we would see some vocabulary in English at school, like colors or animals.

 Hi, my name is Daniella Yasmin, I'm 30 years old and I'm an English teacher. I'm also an actress and a writer. I love everything related to arts and comunication! I started learning English at a young age and was mostly self-taught. At 16 I took an English course to improve my communication and fell in love with teaching a second language by watching my teachers at the course. When I joined the University I started studying only Portuguese to improve my writing skills in my native language, but I soon changed my studies field to both languages, Portuguese and English to become a language teacher. I also intend to work with translation.
